Hyundai working on assist option for deaf drivers

Sounds from the external environment are sensed and visually portrayed to the driver intelligently. Discerning between construction sounds, for example, and the sound of an emergency vehicle’s siren, the AVC can ignore or respond to those sounds according to need, displaying visual cues on the vehicle’s head-up display. Meanwhile, navigation prompts for turns are shown through multi-colored LED light strips embedded in the steering wheel, blinking in the direction the driver needs to turn.
